Kewarra Beach, QLD 4879

Kewarra Beach is a laid back, famiy orientated, well maintained northern beach suburb of Cairns. The first thing you notice are the new modern house proud homes with green lush garderns, secondly an assortment of shops, child care facilities and primary schools and thirdly a long stretch of beach over looking Haycock and Double Island, not to mention a beach resort offering a tropical alfresco restaurant and bar. We have lived in Kewarra for two years and mostly enjoyed the luxury of strolling down the beach in the evenings and on the weekends. Its a good place to live.

Thought I would comment as the other reviews seem like they are someone trying to boost their property values. It's a nice place to visit on the weekend but wouldn't live there. It is a bit out of town and peak hour traffic is annoying.

Nestled into the coast and mountain range, Kewarra Beach offers a lifestyle like no other.  Quiet, yet close to everything you need. Only 25  minutes to Cairns. Shops local. Blissfully gorgeous beach, with an added dog beach south of the allocated swimming zone. Amazingly delicious local restaurants just a stonesthrow away.

A neighbourhood that is warm, friendly and lifestyle focused. People don't realise how wonderful it is to live here until you do, so ignore reviews from non locals.

Few amenities around, just a dog beach only. Far from city.

The beach has nice sunrises, but other than that there is not much appeal to the suburb.
It is very remote to cairns making it a considerable commute to get anywhere. The beach is a dog beach so not great for kids. If you have teenagers you will be constantly driving them into town. Good if you want to retire and play golf.

We moved up from Sydney not long after COVID lockdowns ended.
For us, the northern beaches were our kind of vibe.
A bit out of the city but with enough restaurants and shops around to keep us entertained.
We did our first summer here and it was a bit crazy with the heat, but the lifestyle and community is laid back.
Best move we ever made.

Hoping to move here soon. I'm closer to the city at the moment but it is much more peaceful here.
My friend has been here a few years and loves it.

The suburb is filled with the type of people who would do anything to make their property prices go up. Even being kniving and deceitful.
The beach is for dogs and not swimmable.
Steer well clear.

It’s a trek to get to. Beach isn’t that great. Can’t swim all year and you need to watch for crocs.

Uncrowded, friendly, not over developed, underpriced.
Getting a big water park, new road linking to Trinity beach and new boardwalk lining to Clifton. The gem of the north.
